Zoot Allures features two of Zappa’s signature guitar pieces, (“Black Napkins” & “Zoot Allures”). The album became a fan favorite since its release in 1976. Originally conceived as a double-disc, Frank re-edited it to a single record after pressure from his record company. This 180 gram re-issue was mastered and cut directly from the analog tape master by Bernie Grundman in 2017.
